When the Salamanders summon a giant flame dragon with their psychic powers it's 'So metal!' yet when the Space Sharks summon a giant shark it's too 'on the nose'. Curious...
I think it's less on the nose for the Salamanders since their Librarians bend fire into the shape of a dragon, while the Space Sharks just summon a straight up shark avatar to eat people.

@@mr.malpractice6390 I was there. His thoughts were that "The pod will continue birthing organisms until it is destroyed. Wait hear and clear any stragglers" There were no stragglers.
My favorite part in any book is where the inquisitors from the book "outer dark" stumble into a cult meeting, get captured and then when they are going to be sacrificed a fucking land raider busts through the god damn wall and spills out a load of space sharks with chain axes. I wont go into detail but the scene terrified and gave severe PTSD TO A FUCKING INQUISITOR
"I gotta be honest, i'm a fan. I think they're super dope. I think they're fucking cool. I think they're fucking DUMB" The quote that sums up a solid 60-70% of the fanbase. And i'm one of them. I don't love the Sharky boys because their lore is so deep. No they are sharks in space, wearing power armour and just slaughtering fools. And Tyberos needs to supplement pieces of his Terminator armor with Dreadnought parts cause he's to big! It's just the kind of dumb, fun and super dope thing I came to love this universe for.
The lore can be deepened..! They do have really a lot of crazy lore potential with the Maori theme or any island dwelling culture. I agree though, the lore doesn't have to make sense. It just has to be badass or cool dumbfuckery... For the VOIDFATHER!
They are so right because none of us has a right to talk shit. XD Bricky: What if nuns, but with guns! DK: What if space marines... But wizards!! Shy: What if Orks... But Cockney football hooligans! X'D
I mean they have three novels in as many years, the 2 by Robbie MacNiven, the Duology about their 3rd company, is pretty damn good tbh. Haven’t read the newest one yet.
One of the traditions that was missed was when these space marines gather recruits, first thing they do is have everyone 1v1 duel to the death until half the recruits are left. One of the reasons why they have so many fatalities.
I mean a LOT of Space marine chapters do that if I'm not mistaken. Getting "number 1 victory royale yeah Fortnite we 'bout to get down 10 kills on the bord right now just wiped out tomato town" is probably the least surprising thing with Space Marines
@@FoxHound-ut1hu nah the sharks Geneseed is implanted inside a coral covered apothercarion The polyps miasma it releases kill bacteria and other viruses
DK, Loyalist successor chapters of traitor legions have mysterious origins exactly because if that information was open they would most likely get purged. The backstory being mysterious and their ancestor being unknown is quite literally the point.
Also because the successor chapters formed AFTER the heresy and there wasn't exactly a ton of surviving loyalist Traitor Legion Marines around at that point to even form successors.
The Salamanders Librarians: Summon a literal fire dragon. DK: "YO THAT'S DOPE!" The Carcharodons Librarians: Summon a literal psychic shark. DK: "PFFT, fuckin LAAAAAAAAAME."
Dragons are cooler than sharks simple as that. Also it’s made of fire. If the space sharks did something similar like use whatever fluid was available, maybe that’s why they want to spill and spread so much blood, and phychicly manipulate that liquid into a shark, that would essentially jump 10 levels of cool in my book. Else it feels a little tacked on, more like an idea someone slapped onto them to keep the shark theme going and not something that looks like it would’ve developed in universe through the chapters culture and values.
Always figured the Charcarodons were loyalist night lords who defected to the loyalists, and to keep them relatively safe from being purged they were sent on their long hunt to do what they could to redeem the sins of their brothers and father.
@The shy one That sounds likely as well! Really does feel a bit like a hybrid of the 2 legions. Like how the Minotaurs kinda seem like half World Eaters and half Ultramarine or Imperial Fists.
Current lore has Corax exile the majority of the Terra born RG because they where brutal slavers before the heresy to the edge of the known galaxy. They are pretty much confirmed to be from them wit the possible addition of lNight lords elemwnts who left the traitors after The Lion captured Konrad
If you read the book it heavily implies they are ravenguard nightlord hybrids. originally ravenguard and then got a lot of nightlord geneseed to help replenish theirs.
One of the cool theories was they are hybrid chapter mix of night lords and ravens that hide the loyalist lords... but then Papa Smurf came in and without any problems called "yo! you! yes you! you gray faced fuckers! YOU GET FUCKING PRIMARIS REINFORCMENTS!!! LOL" so... I don't know now.
2 things: 1. I wish Bricky had read the quote where a Mechanicum (Magos I think?) actually saw Tyberos and had a blue screen moment for about a second. 2. I have an internal debate about whether Tyberos should try and cross the Rubicon Primaris and how big he'd get if he got through it.
Cool tings: 1. Tyberos is such a fatass that his armor is partially dreadnought armor. Not tactical dreadnought Terminator armor, literally dreadnought armor. 2. They use chainaxes like World Eaters. 3. They kinda have the ambush predator vibe, like Grey Knights but cool. They just pull up, annihilate a target, and leave. 4: During Badab War, when they showed up to kill the Astral Claws, they blew up the planet while an entire titan legion and like five space marine chapters were on it. When confronted, tyberos went (: and then left and nobody has seen them in like 300 years. At least like in a book. 5: I don’t think they have Primaris Marines yet, because they’re so like “UhhUh we spooky hide in void no like Gilly-man we hiding OoOooOoo.”
WAIT THEY DESTROYED A TITAN LEGION BY DOING THAT? Damn I feel like Arch didn't put enough emphasis on that when he was doing his series on the War for Badab. Time to start re-watching that....
@@bjornthefellhanded5655 Ngl he rushed the fuck out of the Badab War series. I was expecting another Vraks-level saga and we got like a 5 part summary The Carcaradons showing up was a BIG deal. Back when the Badab series was written 40K was still in its infancy and the idea of a Space Marine chapter lost in time and operating independently of the Imperium under the Emperor’s writ from all the way back since the Great Crusade blew ppl’s minds
My favourite story from the Charcarodons was when tyberos and had an interaction with an adeptus mechanicus, he was so still and quiet than the mechanicus thought he was a statue Until he moved slightly and he MADE THE MECHANICUS FEEL FEAR, a thing that has programmed itself to not feel any emotions, dude is so terrifying that he forced the mechanicus to oil itself
The mere fact that Tyberos, a hulking Space Marine who is so fucking big he needs to use dreadnought armor with his own terminator armor, managed to make a tech priest oil himself in sheer fear just makes me laugh. That and the fact that the Carcharodons, when going to save some Inquisitors from a deranged cult, managed to give said Inquisitors a severe case of PTSD, just makes this chapter so fucking awesome.
@@muttproductions2536 it's still fucking funny how that thing happened twice or so. Like she really isn't having a good time being the emperor vanquisher of the unworthy and nonbeliever
It's a pretty common theory that cawl is making primaris Marines from traitor stock, despite gulliman explicitly telling him he can't. I mean, "the Sons of the Phoenix" are a chapter
@@r.cdahuman7682 I mean....they only have the exact same flagship those raven guard legionaries had, black eyes, white skin, a proclivity towards stealth tactics and use the exact same title for chapter master (shade lord) as the Leader of those exiled raven guard Arkhas Fal. It's pretty much all but confirmed, like how you can't really overlook that the sons of the phoenix are fulgrims even though they're legally not.
As an Islander myself, I really love the space sharks, they're the closest thing to islander space marines in cannon. I even drew my own chapter on pacific islanders. still trying to figure out their geneseed tho
So another cool psychic power they have, I don’t think it was given a name, but their head librarian, Te Kahurangi, focused a little center point on a man’s forehead. Then the weight of an entire ocean crushed his head at that little point.
@@typherson6358 oh a lot of them have Polynesian esk names. Akamu the Harvester prime, Bail Sharr the reaper prime, Akia former reaper prime, and so on.
The pale skin, black eyes and becoming more of an introspective loner over time are also signature Raven Guard characteristics resulting directly from the geneseed of Corax
I like the theory that they were the Raven Guard from before Corax' discovery. He didn't care for their cut-throat and bloody tactics, so he exiled them to be replaced by the rebels from Deliverance
More like the fact they took slaves. Given Corax was himself enslaved he didn’t mesh well with the battalion of Raven Guard in the Great Crusade that did so There’s a large group of ppl that believe it’s this battalion of Raven Guard that Corax sent out during the Great Crusade but refused to recall even during the Heresy that eventually grew into the Carcaradons. Potentially splintering into them and the Ashen Claws chapter another renegade Raven Guard chapter they maintain ties with despite them renouncing the Imperium entirely. That’s very weird for a super loyal chapter like the Space Sharks
Fun fact, one of the rites for their initiates is to jump into a fishtank they have in their ship and swim with the giant pet sharks until the sharks accept them or eat them, whatever happens first
@bohba13 Also, with the exception of the small, parasitic cokkie-cutter sharks, sharks don't like the way we humans taste, so unless you do something to either spook or irritate them, they'll most likely be content to just chill.
One of my favorite moments was with Sharks clearing a tyranid infested ship and Tyberos goes to one of their fleshy breaching tubes and tells his brothers to kill anything that comes out and then he starts slashing and climbing his way up to kill the hive ship on his own.
These episodes about smaller chapter really makes me want to see a Legion of the Damned episode some day. If DK doesn't like "on the nose" stuff, wait until he meets the emperor's litteral deus ex machinas
5:00 Not only was he kicked out for like a few days under the suspicion of using MACROS (which considering that Legion is 1000+ geth programs I cant really say I blame them for suspecting that) but he was also banned for SHITTALKING players. Which is one of the funniest fucking things that came out of those files other then Grunt's search history and Tali reinstalling and uninstalling what amounts to a vibrator into her suit multiple times.
Other than the Space Sharks, there are other Space Marine Chapters that are speculated to be successor chapters of traitor legions, the Blood Ravens is one such chapter, the Minotaurs is another along with the Silver Skulls who were speculated to be Iron Warriors successors, with the latter's symbol looking a lot like Barabas Dantioch's mask. Some of them are subtle, but then there are Primaris Chapters like The Covenant of Fire (supposedly Salamanders') and Sons of the Phoenix (supposedly Imperial Fist's), the former's symbol is a book on fire and they are known to be iconoclasts (Word Bearers), the latter's name has 'Phoenix' on it with a heraldry that had a golden aquillian wing and they are known to be perfectionists (Emperor's Children).
Wait... werent the silver skulls the chapter the Inquisition invented so people stop worshipping Trazyn for saving a planet? If they were actually existing I would love a scene of Trazyn just seeking them and screaming at them for taking his legend
Time to drop extra lore! The space sharks are one of the very few forces to know of the existence of the Ashen Claws- TLDR they're renegade marines who started out in the Heresy and didn't pick a side. They now and then do business with each other for resources Big example of this is if the sharks just are struggling THAT much to get recruits, the Ashen Claws are willing to exchange for some meat for the grinder
Well it was like that up until recently when Tyberos refused to give back the dual relic chainblade lightning claws he allegedly stole from their chapter in exchange as payment for the Ashen Claws coming to their aid against an entire hive fleet when their back was against the wall in the book. Tyberos legitimately gives zero shits and I find it absolutely hilarious with how he responded to the demands after the battle. I find it interesting with how despite being cutoff and strapped for resources since they don't have production facilities like normal chapters do from forge worlds and stuff they just up and trade illegal relic archeotech equipment and technologies they found from the outer dark to get the shit they need from the mechanicus via under the table dealings. The chapter is a really neat take compared to alot of the usual ones I've seen from the books.
@@PremedComrade-25 was not aware of these, that's cool! Also I guess after being around and so isolated for so long they just sorta stopped caring? Space Shark's got heretics to kill, a little shady business is a small price to pay for getting the bigger fish so to say
So, i believe in one of the newest Horus Heresy books they basically confirmed that the Carcharodons are exiled Raven Guard. If I remember the story correctly, it goes like this. There was a unit of Raven Guard during the Great Crusade that before they found their primarch that did this exact kind of tactics, and his title in the Raven Guard was the Shadelord. So these guys did this tactic and basically perfected it, but once they found their Primarch he didn't like the methods that this part of his legion was doing as he felt it was too much and over the top. So during that time but before the Horus Heresy and before the Raven Guard lost most of it's members, instead of killing this unit, he sent them on a mission to go into the "Outer Dark" and go fight the enemies of the Imperium out there. I believe that is where they also got the 'approval' for the Red Tithe.
In fact, the title of Shade Lord isnt just haha edgy for the sharks. That is a Terran RG title for Legion Master, as Arkhas Fal was called Shade Lord. The Raven Guard Terrans who were sent away after the battle of Gate 42 were titled the Ashen Claws, whom the Sharks return to and half fight half ignore each other.
I was literally thinking the exact same thing. Nothing wrong with that but seeing them before a first founding like BA was a surprise. I could also see them doing this just to spite the people telling them to do BA already
Personal head cannon is that because they’re inspired by Polynesian/Maori culture they’ve got New Zealand accents, so you’ve basically got a while chapter of Korg from Thor Ragnarok
What I like about the Carcharodons, is that they are quite literally monstrous, bloodthirsty beasts, but when engaged with friendly chapters, they are actually pretty chill guys.
The red tithe makes sense for the space shark image, its like press gangs from the colonial era where ship crews would abduct people from land and force them to join their crew. I think this tactic was used by many European navies.
@@blackstripes0812 "Tyberos The Red Wake" is his name, he wears Terminator armor that's been augmented with Dreadnought armor so he can fit in it, and it's still tight for him, the guy could probably give Vulcan a run for his money in size
Tyberos the red wake. The man who had to have his terminator armour fitted with dreadnought parts because the terminator armour was too small. Oh and he can fucking run in the armour. Now theres something you dont want to see coming towards you, dark alley or no.
@@The_Horned_King You should check out his favourite weapons to bolt onto that suit of armor called Hunger and Slake. They are chain lightning claws. Yes you heard me right CHAIN LIGHTNING CLAWS Tyberos’s nickname of the Red Wake suddenly makes a lot more sense lmao
By hestimates he is about 11/12 feet tall when in full panoply of war. A REGULAR Terminator weighs in at about 1,5 tons. Tyberos, being much larger and his armor being bulked up, should weigh at a lower end of almost 4 tons and at the higher hand just shy of 5,5/6 tons. The armor isn't even made to run, at least not at the FREAKING 6O km/h that is a Space Marine pace. But does he give a shit? No. Why? 'Cause Red Wake, bitch
That part about the hippity hippity is pretty cool cos some species of shark do just that, commandeer fish (sometimes whole schools) to serve them and or join them either willingly due to survival sense/weighing up odds or in return for not being eaten

The Charchadon Astra was some of the Terran Raven Guard Marine the get banned of the big ol' Crow Corax. In one of the Books of the Space Sharks they made a Trade with a other Renegade Warband of the Ravenguard(Ash Claws if I remember right) and Part of the Trade was some of the clean Geneseed from the Charchadons for the Ash Claws. They have both the same Gene Fathers... Well, At least like I understand the Parts of the Book.
Red Tithe is one of my favorite space marine books, up there with the Iron Warriors Omnibus and Night Lord's trilogy. It does a great job fleshing out the chapter and is real badass.

@@evillaughinthebackground5732 perhaps that would be another dark reflection of the Salamanders that they would represent. But, I must say, the way they maintain and modify their gear is very... Iron Hands in a way...
I always like Charcharadon lore, because while it overtly is written quite mysteriously, parts of it let you figure out things as you go and piece the information together into things that it could be. For example, a concept I haven't seen here: Tyberos could very well be Konrad Curze. Both the names have similar linguistic origins in latin, both are 11 foot tall, and wield almost obscenely lethal talon weapons. Tyberos can sprint in Terminator armour (believed to be partly made from dreadnought plate), while most official Astartes can only hope to walk in it.. Konrad Curze was a terror, for a specific reason, and loathed criminal indulgences, and both Night Lords and Space sharks were extremely effective for it. Most critically, Tyberos, alongside speaking like and acting like Curze, is the only other known figure in the 40k universe to casually instil a fear response in Astartes. Even Night lords only manage stress, apprehension and dread at best, outside of an adrenaline response, but Tyberos can walk into a meeting of Space Marine Captains and make them afraid of him.
@@bambam-gj2vw NL are your slav criminals who shiv people for lols. Charcarodons are your muted version ones whose vibes like they're gonna make sure you bleed profusely first before death.
Aww they didnt mention my favorite part about the space sharks. The ENTIRE chapter attacks at the same time in battle. Most chapters break up into groups of 100 or less. Not these crazy fuckers, whole chapter or nothing. They attack in a massive gore-spattered wave of power armor and chain swords. Thats the best part, man!

I swear to the Emperor, I've once seen the most spectacular and terrifying phenomena during a battle against Drukhari forces led by Asdrubael Vect where they retreated in fear. The phenomena in question was a bright, golden tornado...full of Carcharodons. We reclaimed a vital Imperial world from the most dangerous Drukhari alive, and to this very day none of us can explain how the Carcharodons pulled off such a stunt without the Divine Help of the Emperor himself. All I'm wondering is why they chose a tornado. The Angry Marines achieved the same psychological effect on the enemy with just a raging thunderstorm. So why a tornado for the Carcharodons? -Ave Deus Imperator

Biggest space marine you have ever seen shows up. "Go on....probe me" I think the term your thinking of Bricky is "Dripped out" I always wonder about what if they combined gene seeds. Imagine if they mixed space shark and space wolf gene seeds...lol. I know its super heretic to think of..but imagine if they did in fact mess around mixing gene seeds of diff chaps.
I think if you mixed space wolf with space shark, Khorne would fuel Slaanesh with the nut he's gonna bust. That shit would be apex predator incarnate. Adding primaris onto it would just make the situation even more horrifying.
40k in general really is the epitome of, get into it at 14 for the edge, and stay with it as you mature and Actually find the character depth Like inquisition when you start "RAAAAA EXTERMINSTUS, HERESY BLEEEH" inquisition when reading anything by dan abnett "oh... I'm sad now" Inquisition when reading anything by sandy Mitchell "pwease notice me inquisitor vale UwU"
"If you punch their teeth out will they grow back like a sharks" You know, I kinda feel like that's something a regular marine would have? Marines live so long they'd have to go through many sets over their lifetime. Or secretly every marine has dentures? (edit: made out of the regrowing crystals you make chainblades out of because why not, 40K!)
When the Carcharodons entered the Badab war, the first thing they did was attacking the Mantis Warriors chapter in the Endymion cluster. Needless to say they didn’t take many precautions against damaging infrastructure, plundering the various planets’ mineral resources as they hunted down the Mantis Warriors to near extinction. They even Launched a massive drop pod assault on Endymion Prime itself, ignoring the directions of the loyalist forces holding out on the battlefield and turning the entire planet into a war zone. By the end of the campaign the Carcharodons ruined at least a dozen inhabited planets. Millions were left rotting unburied or starving and the Mantis Warriors were no longer an effective fighting force. The conduct of the Space Sharks was so brutal that other more honorable loyalist chapters (fire angels) got angry and withdrew from the war.
Probably the coolest part of the Carcharodons books was when someone was watching a video of Night lords and them fighting in complete violent silence.
Hey Bricky/DK/Shy, just thought I'd point out an inaccuracy: Charcarodons actually DO trade/have contact with the Mechanicus - they trade Archaeotech & artefacts for supplies and raw materials; these trades are known as 'grey tithes' (which you do mention later )(However large amount of Horus-heresy era tech is definitely true).
"I think they take the dumb scale a little higher then others" says the man loving the faction that drops churches from orbit and uses a church organ as a missile launching tank... No Bricky, you are just biased.
I mean.. yeah. At least nuns in space flow with the whole imperium high gothic holier than thou approach. And they are the religious zealotry of holy terra. Carcharodons are mostly just "were sharks, on spaaaace, why? Who knows but we are and were cool" they are super cool though and if they just get a good origin book then theyd easily become one of the coolest loyalist faction in 40k
Fun facts/info you may have missed. It's believed Hunger and Slake are the Primarch Weapons of Corvus Corax - Linking to the fact they may be a Raven Guard Successor. The Mechanicus have no records. Tyberos, the Red Wake is so big, he has to modify his Terminator Armour with Dreadnought armour cos he chunky. They have a few audiobooks - The main one to listen to if you like both the Space Sharks and Dark Elder is Silent Hunters. The Space Sharks are about as edgy/cringey the as the space wolves. You delve too deep and your like "oh god, I can feel the teen angst and edge, it hurts" or just "kinda cringe" but most space marines are kinda cringe if you think on them too much. They are just islander sharks like how the space Wolves are Viking wolves. At least the Space Sharks don't have Sharken or something stupid where you have the guy from suicide squad in WH40k. Oh, they have an interrogation method where they get the person to stair into the dark void of space and it causes them to go mad.
The sharks are less cringe than the wolves but you find out the sharks cringe faster than the wolves since…. The fucking wolves are a legion and have more lore so theirs more buffer and less time for nitty gritty
To correct the Mass Effect section: Grunt's wikiwalk was from "Urdnot Wrex" to "Dinosaurs." He didn't search for "Sharks" until after reading "The Old Man and the Sea" by Hemingway.

I mean they have three novels in as many years, the 2 by Robbie MacNiven, the Duology about their 3rd company, is pretty damn good tbh. Haven’t read the newest one yet.
One of the traditions that was missed was when these space marines gather recruits, first thing they do is have everyone 1v1 duel to the death until half the recruits are left. One of the reasons why they have so many fatalities.
I mean a LOT of Space marine chapters do that if I'm not mistaken. Getting "number 1 victory royale yeah Fortnite we 'bout to get down 10 kills on the bord right now just wiped out tomato town" is probably the least surprising thing with Space Marines

DK, Loyalist successor chapters of traitor legions have mysterious origins exactly because if that information was open they would most likely get purged. The backstory being mysterious and their ancestor being unknown is quite literally the point.

Dragons are cooler than sharks simple as that. Also it’s made of fire. If the space sharks did something similar like use whatever fluid was available, maybe that’s why they want to spill and spread so much blood, and phychicly manipulate that liquid into a shark, that would essentially jump 10 levels of cool in my book. Else it feels a little tacked on, more like an idea someone slapped onto them to keep the shark theme going and not something that looks like it would’ve developed in universe through the chapters culture and values.
Its just the rest of the space sharks lore lmao the salamanders dragon is coolified by the lore the sharks well shark is cringified by the lore
And he's right
Always figured the Charcarodons were loyalist night lords who defected to the loyalists, and to keep them relatively safe from being purged they were sent on their long hunt to do what they could to redeem the sins of their brothers and father.
@The shy one
That sounds likely as well! Really does feel a bit like a hybrid of the 2 legions. Like how the Minotaurs kinda seem like half World Eaters and half Ultramarine or Imperial Fists.
Current lore has Corax exile the majority of the Terra born RG because they where brutal slavers before the heresy to the edge of the known galaxy. They are pretty much confirmed to be from them wit the possible addition of lNight lords elemwnts who left the traitors after The Lion captured Konrad
If you read the book it heavily implies they are ravenguard nightlord hybrids. originally ravenguard and then got a lot of nightlord geneseed to help replenish theirs.
One of the cool theories was they are hybrid chapter mix of night lords and ravens that hide the loyalist lords... but then Papa Smurf came in and without any problems called "yo! you! yes you! you gray faced fuckers! YOU GET FUCKING PRIMARIS REINFORCMENTS!!! LOL" so... I don't know now.
Honestly, I'm still a fan of them being salamanders who disagreed with their doctrine.
2 things:
1. I wish Bricky had read the quote where a Mechanicum (Magos I think?) actually saw Tyberos and had a blue screen moment for about a second.
2. I have an internal debate about whether Tyberos should try and cross the Rubicon Primaris and how big he'd get if he got through it.
They dont put him through the rubicon primaris because there is no armor big enough to put him in.

2. They use chainaxes like World Eaters.
3. They kinda have the ambush predator vibe, like Grey Knights but cool. They just pull up, annihilate a target, and leave.
4: During Badab War, when they showed up to kill the Astral Claws, they blew up the planet while an entire titan legion and like five space marine chapters were on it. When confronted, tyberos went (: and then left and nobody has seen them in like 300 years. At least like in a book.
5: I don’t think they have Primaris Marines yet, because they’re so like “UhhUh we spooky hide in void no like Gilly-man we hiding OoOooOoo.”
Tyberos went (:

@@bjornthefellhanded5655 Ngl he rushed the fuck out of the Badab War series. I was expecting another Vraks-level saga and we got like a 5 part summary
The Carcaradons showing up was a BIG deal. Back when the Badab series was written 40K was still in its infancy and the idea of a Space Marine chapter lost in time and operating independently of the Imperium under the Emperor’s writ from all the way back since the Great Crusade blew ppl’s minds
They have Primaris Marines. There is a photo of a Primaris Space Marine in Carcharodon colors.
No, they like Gilly-man. It's Guilliman they have a problem with.
My favourite story from the Charcarodons was when tyberos and had an interaction with an adeptus mechanicus, he was so still and quiet than the mechanicus thought he was a statue
Until he moved slightly and he MADE THE MECHANICUS FEEL FEAR, a thing that has programmed itself to not feel any emotions, dude is so terrifying that he forced the mechanicus to oil itself
The thing about tyberos in that scene was like acts like a costudian time to time unless he answers your question to which he formal speaks
The mere fact that Tyberos, a hulking Space Marine who is so fucking big he needs to use dreadnought armor with his own terminator armor, managed to make a tech priest oil himself in sheer fear just makes me laugh. That and the fact that the Carcharodons, when going to save some Inquisitors from a deranged cult, managed to give said Inquisitors a severe case of PTSD, just makes this chapter so fucking awesome.

As an Islander myself, I really love the space sharks, they're the closest thing to islander space marines in cannon. I even drew my own chapter on pacific islanders. still trying to figure out their geneseed tho
It depends of what you are after from your chapter: strength, discipline, firepower, or savagery?
It'd ben kinda cool if the chapter had a variant of the Maori Haka.
That would explain why Tyberos is so god damn wham. Only an islander can get that big and still stays as strong and as quick 😂
Don't forget the Dark Krakens!

The pale skin, black eyes and becoming more of an introspective loner over time are also signature Raven Guard characteristics resulting directly from the geneseed of Corax
But also abit of nightlords who knows
Nostraman traits too
Redditors.
They are both
I like the theory that they were the Raven Guard from before Corax' discovery. He didn't care for their cut-throat and bloody tactics, so he exiled them to be replaced by the rebels from Deliverance
More like the fact they took slaves. Given Corax was himself enslaved he didn’t mesh well with the battalion of Raven Guard in the Great Crusade that did so
There’s a large group of ppl that believe it’s this battalion of Raven Guard that Corax sent out during the Great Crusade but refused to recall even during the Heresy that eventually grew into the Carcaradons. Potentially splintering into them and the Ashen Claws chapter another renegade Raven Guard chapter they maintain ties with despite them renouncing the Imperium entirely. That’s very weird for a super loyal chapter like the Space Sharks
Fun fact, one of the rites for their initiates is to jump into a fishtank they have in their ship and swim with the giant pet sharks until the sharks accept them or eat them, whatever happens first
honestly, depending on the sharks they keep, this could be quite easy. most sharks are quite dog like and like belly rubs.

Other than the Space Sharks, there are other Space Marine Chapters that are speculated to be successor chapters of traitor legions, the Blood Ravens is one such chapter, the Minotaurs is another along with the Silver Skulls who were speculated to be Iron Warriors successors, with the latter's symbol looking a lot like Barabas Dantioch's mask.
Some of them are subtle, but then there are Primaris Chapters like The Covenant of Fire (supposedly Salamanders') and Sons of the Phoenix (supposedly Imperial Fist's), the former's symbol is a book on fire and they are known to be iconoclasts (Word Bearers), the latter's name has 'Phoenix' on it with a heraldry that had a golden aquillian wing and they are known to be perfectionists (Emperor's Children).
Wait... werent the silver skulls the chapter the Inquisition invented so people stop worshipping Trazyn for saving a planet?

Time to drop extra lore!
The space sharks are one of the very few forces to know of the existence of the Ashen Claws- TLDR they're renegade marines who started out in the Heresy and didn't pick a side. They now and then do business with each other for resources
Big example of this is if the sharks just are struggling THAT much to get recruits, the Ashen Claws are willing to exchange for some meat for the grinder
Well it was like that up until recently when Tyberos refused to give back the dual relic chainblade lightning claws he allegedly stole from their chapter in exchange as payment for the Ashen Claws coming to their aid against an entire hive fleet when their back was against the wall in the book. Tyberos legitimately gives zero shits and I find it absolutely hilarious with how he responded to the demands after the battle. I find it interesting with how despite being cutoff and strapped for resources since they don't have production facilities like normal chapters do from forge worlds and stuff they just up and trade illegal relic archeotech equipment and technologies they found from the outer dark to get the shit they need from the mechanicus via under the table dealings. The chapter is a really neat take compared to alot of the usual ones I've seen from the books.
@@PremedComrade-25 was not aware of these, that's cool! Also I guess after being around and so isolated for so long they just sorta stopped caring? Space Shark's got heretics to kill, a little shady business is a small price to pay for getting the bigger fish so to say
@@PremedComrade-25 *If they want them, they can try and take them*
That edit of the Minotaurs turning into a smiling Perturabo made me laugh way more than I have in a while.
So, i believe in one of the newest Horus Heresy books they basically confirmed that the Carcharodons are exiled Raven Guard. If I remember the story correctly, it goes like this.
There was a unit of Raven Guard during the Great Crusade that before they found their primarch that did this exact kind of tactics, and his title in the Raven Guard was the Shadelord. So these guys did this tactic and basically perfected it, but once they found their Primarch he didn't like the methods that this part of his legion was doing as he felt it was too much and over the top.
So during that time but before the Horus Heresy and before the Raven Guard lost most of it's members, instead of killing this unit, he sent them on a mission to go into the "Outer Dark" and go fight the enemies of the Imperium out there. I believe that is where they also got the 'approval' for the Red Tithe.
In fact, the title of Shade Lord isnt just haha edgy for the sharks. That is a Terran RG title for Legion Master, as Arkhas Fal was called Shade Lord. The Raven Guard Terrans who were sent away after the battle of Gate 42 were titled the Ashen Claws, whom the Sharks return to and half fight half ignore each other.
I can’t believe we got an episode on CARCHARODONS before blood angles

I always like Charcharadon lore, because while it overtly is written quite mysteriously, parts of it let you figure out things as you go and piece the information together into things that it could be.
For example, a concept I haven't seen here: Tyberos could very well be Konrad Curze.
Both the names have similar linguistic origins in latin, both are 11 foot tall, and wield almost obscenely lethal talon weapons.
Tyberos can sprint in Terminator armour (believed to be partly made from dreadnought plate), while most official Astartes can only hope to walk in it.. Konrad Curze was a terror, for a specific reason, and loathed criminal indulgences, and both Night Lords and Space sharks were extremely effective for it.
Most critically, Tyberos, alongside speaking like and acting like Curze, is the only other known figure in the 40k universe to casually instil a fear response in Astartes. Even Night lords only manage stress, apprehension and dread at best, outside of an adrenaline response, but Tyberos can walk into a meeting of Space Marine Captains and make them afraid of him.
That would be a bit difficult, since Konrad Curse had his head cut off after the Heresy.

Biggest space marine you have ever seen shows up.
"Go on....probe me"
I think the term your thinking of Bricky is "Dripped out"
I always wonder about what if they combined gene seeds. Imagine if they mixed space shark and space wolf gene seeds...lol. I know its super heretic to think of..but imagine if they did in fact mess around mixing gene seeds of diff chaps.
I think if you mixed space wolf with space shark, Khorne would fuel Slaanesh with the nut he's gonna bust. That shit would be apex predator incarnate. Adding primaris onto it would just make the situation even more horrifying.
@@theenigma8683 lol i bet
Kinda sounds like something bile would do.
The bastard finally did it. He depicted a marine in the best armor mark, 8, errant! Sincerely, the one guy who plays deathwatch
There's not a lot of loyalist chapters I can picture using chain axes but the Carcharadons are 100% one of them
They bite, they fight, they're the Space Sharks! JAWSOME!
The Champions of this Chapter are called Great Whites, while the marines who fight in the squad style are called Hammer Heads.
Whatchu think ?😉
Are the Chapter masters Megaladons?
They said possibly a night lords successor, and I immediately wanted to make a carcharodon army..... damn you Bricky
40k in general really is the epitome of, get into it at 14 for the edge, and stay with it as you mature and Actually find the character depth
Like inquisition when you start "RAAAAA EXTERMINSTUS, HERESY BLEEEH"
inquisition when reading anything by dan abnett "oh... I'm sad now"
Inquisition when reading anything by sandy Mitchell "pwease notice me inquisitor vale UwU"
"If you punch their teeth out will they grow back like a sharks" You know, I kinda feel like that's something a regular marine would have? Marines live so long they'd have to go through many sets over their lifetime. Or secretly every marine has dentures? (edit: made out of the regrowing crystals you make chainblades out of because why not, 40K!)
Orks use their teef for chain weapons.
When the Carcharodons entered the Badab war, the first thing they did was attacking the Mantis Warriors chapter in the Endymion cluster. Needless to say they didn’t take many precautions against damaging infrastructure, plundering the various planets’ mineral resources as they hunted down the Mantis Warriors to near extinction. They even Launched a massive drop pod assault on Endymion Prime itself, ignoring the directions of the loyalist forces holding out on the battlefield and turning the entire planet into a war zone. By the end of the campaign the Carcharodons ruined at least a dozen inhabited planets. Millions were left rotting unburied or starving and the Mantis Warriors were no longer an effective fighting force. The conduct of the Space Sharks was so brutal that other more honorable loyalist chapters (fire angels) got angry and withdrew from the war.
I could absolutely see a Harlequin rotating one of these marines just because it would be hilarious
LETS GOOOOOO. Really hope they do Badab sometime soon.
With the yellow and black salamanders?
Bricky thinking the space sharks are edgy and over the top while loving night lords, sisters of battle and astra militarum is insanity.
26:43 they also go into a berserkr rage like a feeding frenzy once they strike. Wildly and brutally slaughtering their enemies!
Probably the coolest part of the Carcharodons books was when someone was watching a video of Night lords and them fighting in complete violent silence.
Hey Bricky/DK/Shy, just thought I'd point out an inaccuracy: Charcarodons actually DO trade/have contact with the Mechanicus - they trade Archaeotech & artefacts for supplies and raw materials; these trades are known as 'grey tithes' (which you do mention later )(However large amount of Horus-heresy era tech is definitely true).
"I think they take the dumb scale a little higher then others" says the man loving the faction that drops churches from orbit and uses a church organ as a missile launching tank...
No Bricky, you are just biased.
I mean.. yeah. At least nuns in space flow with the whole imperium high gothic holier than thou approach. And they are the religious zealotry of holy terra. Carcharodons are mostly just "were sharks, on spaaaace, why? Who knows but we are and were cool" they are super cool though and if they just get a good origin book then theyd easily become one of the coolest loyalist faction in 40k
@@TheBurningcage27 If done well. Done poorly and they'd sink... ;-)
27:16 DK, there's at least one *notable* ocean world in the Imperium. Just one issue.

It's Talassar.

It's an Ultramarine world
Wooooo Space Sharks, they fight, they bite, they strike with imperial might.
Fun facts/info you may have missed.
It's believed Hunger and Slake are the Primarch Weapons of Corvus Corax - Linking to the fact they may be a Raven Guard Successor. The Mechanicus have no records.
Tyberos, the Red Wake is so big, he has to modify his Terminator Armour with Dreadnought armour cos he chunky.
They have a few audiobooks - The main one to listen to if you like both the Space Sharks and Dark Elder is Silent Hunters.
The Space Sharks are about as edgy/cringey the as the space wolves. You delve too deep and your like "oh god, I can feel the teen angst and edge, it hurts" or just "kinda cringe" but most space marines are kinda cringe if you think on them too much. They are just islander sharks like how the space Wolves are Viking wolves.
At least the Space Sharks don't have Sharken or something stupid where you have the guy from suicide squad in WH40k.
Oh, they have an interrogation method where they get the person to stair into the dark void of space and it causes them to go mad.
The sharks are less cringe than the wolves but you find out the sharks cringe faster than the wolves since…. The fucking wolves are a legion and have more lore so theirs more buffer and less time for nitty gritty
cool as this is
they're really doing everything in they're power to avoid the blood angels, aren't they
(Clock gets reset)
@@jesselogan595 -sigh- where all be moving on before we can get there considering the constant mentioning
_Oh my god, my favourite chapter._
...
TYBEROS IS PLEASED.
To correct the Mass Effect section:
Grunt's wikiwalk was from "Urdnot Wrex" to "Dinosaurs." He didn't search for "Sharks" until after reading "The Old Man and the Sea" by Hemingway.
Other loyalists: we will bring death and suffering to the xenos
These guys: We will bring death and SURFING!
I painted my devastator Squad to be Charcharadons, and made sure they all had Lascannons. I call them my laser sharks
I saw what you did there...
Its blursed.
My favorite chapter. I've been looking forward to this.
Imagine fighting these shork marines and the chapter master casually SUMMONING A SHARK IN THE FUCKIN' BATTLEFIELD
